Kenny’s eyes lit up. “Sounds good!”
For dinner, River picked Summit International Restaurant for alfresco dining. After coordinating with Kenny, she quickly returned to the city to pick up her children.
As River stepped out of her car, she unexpectedly ran into Daniella
Daniella glared at River. “Do you really think you can avoid me forever? Just because you did it once doesn’t mean you can hide forever.”
River furrowed her brow and responded icily. Tm sorry, but do I know you?”
“Still trying to pretend, huh? River, I can recognize you even if you have turned to ashes!”
“You’re crazy.” River remarked, unfazed, as she walked towards the kindergarten.
“You don’t have the guts to admit it, huh? I can make you admit it willingly!” Daniella said confidently.
River’s nightmare suddenly flashed in her mind, making her anxious. She turned to Daniella with a serious look. “What do you want?”
Daniella smirked. “Scared I’ll take the kids?”
River stayed composed. “You’re not capable of that yet.”
“I decide what I’m capable of, River. If 1 heat you once, I can do it again!” Daniella laughed wildly.
River was about to retort when she noticed a tall man nearby. She smiled and asked calmly.
So, you think you can handle me, Daniella? Planning to kidnap me again, stage another murder scene, and pin it on me?”
“Do you think I’d repeat the same trick? Daniella laughed and whispered, Td hit where it hurts
You know who Axel De Marco is, right? I’m his mother now! Will you come if I take him? If you don’t,
I’ll hurt Axel, and if you do, you’ll go back to prison!”
The man behind Daniella overheard her last sentences
“What’s your plan for Axel?” he thundered.
Daniella turned sharply at the sound of his stern, familiar voice. She stepped back when she saw
Noah’s intense gaze and quickly explained, “Did you hear everything, Noah?”
Noah’s dark eyes grew somber. “Tell me, what’s your plan for Axel?‘
Daniella’s face turned pale. “I was just scaring River, Noah! Did you know River is here? She’s up to no good with Axel. I said I’d threaten Axel to make her reveal her identity and let the police handle her. I’m doing this for Axel’s safely!”
River inwardly sneered at Daniella’s act.
“Did you report her?” Noah snarled.
Daniella was stunned for a moment “No… It wasn’t me. I’ve only just recognized her.”
“Do you think I’d fall for your lies? Reuben!” Noah roared.
Reuben stepped forward. “Mr. De Marco!‘
“Send Daniella to the police station.” Noah ordered.
Reuben was stunned. “On what basis?”
“Child abuse! Tell Chiet Dunn to take good care of Daniella!*
Take good care…
River felt suffocated when she heard the familiar phrase. She endured everything in prison because Noah commanded it, just as she expected
He uttered the same words with such familiarity
Reuben nodded and motioned for a few bodyguards to exit the car and apprehend Daniella.
“Noah-”
“Shout all you want if you want to end up in prison,” Noah cut her off.
Daniella promptly sealed her lips and directed a resentful glare at River.
Noah’s remark disinterested River, prompting her to avert her gaze and head toward the kindergarten.
Noah did not attempt to follow her. Instead, he contemplated deeply while observing her. ‘Why would Daniella use Axel’s abduction to threaten River? Could there be a connection between
Axel and River?
Soon, Noah discarded the idea.
He had witnessed the doctor bringing Axel out of Daniella’s delivery room. There was no way Axel could be related to River.
Noah’s dark eyes were glazed with disgust toward Daniella upon thinking that.
River headed to the alfresco restaurant at night for the appointment and found Kenny already waiting at the table.
He pulled the chair chivalrously for her and said, “My dear G, please take a seat.”
River took a glance at him in frustration. “Kenny, stop messing with me.”
Kenny sniggered “How is my performance?”
Performance?
River looked at him, confused “What performance?”
Kenny pouted his lips in a direction. “There, isn’t that the man you love and hate?”
River was stunned and looked in the direction where Kenny was pointing. She saw Noah sitting at a nearby table with Alex, staring at her coldly
River’s lips twitched. She did not notice Noah when she entered earlier, or she would not have entered:
River braced herself to look away from them.
“How do you know I love and hate him?” she asked.
Kenny sat down, shrugged, and said, “You told it to me when you were drunk and made me look at his photos. It’s not my fault ”
River was rendered speechless. Her drunken self put her in trouble.
Kenny suddenly leaned close to River. “Would you like me to put on an act with you, my dear?
My impeccable acting skills will make him believe we are the perfect couple! I will make sure that he doesn’t.. Uh”
He stopped talking, but River didn’t realize. “Never mind. He won’t believe it because he’s very paranoid. Let’s not create problems,” she said.
“Heh! Why am I unaware that I have paranoia?”
Noah’s cold voice from behind startled River. She turned and glared at him once her surprise faded. “Eavesdropping isn’t good, Noah”
“I listen openly!” Noah gritted his teeth in rage.
Alex came uninvited with his drink and took a seat without River’s permission. “I hope you don’t mind us merging tables, River.”
In fact, he even summoned the waiter and said, “Hey, please bring us the red wine from table 6. Ah, yes, and another bottle of Bin 95.”
River was rendered speechless.
Kenny gasped in excitement. “Whoa! You have good taste in wine!”
Alex said, “You can drink as much wine as you want if you pursue River.”
Kenny’s expression changed drastically. “Do you think I can’t afford to buy
Cough, cough! River can afford to get me a truck!”
River wanted to beat up Kenny.
my own drinks? G-
Noah had been trying to collaborate with her, and Kenny had almost exposed her identity!
“River?” Noah looked at River. How am I unaware of your additional identity?”
River said displeasedly, “Don’t constantly inquire about other people’s matters. Instead, you should work on getting deals.”
Noah’s expression turned solemn. “Why do you keep quarreling with me?” he asked angrily,
“You’re the one who started it.” River was willful.
“I’ve come to see just how many men you’ve hidden!”
“Well, I’m capable of hiding them, at least! How is it any of your business?
“Riverl” Noah was furious. “Will you die without a man?”
“Yes, I will! I’m delighted to be seeking pleasure with handsome men!” she retorted.
Alex and Kenny were at a loss for words, thinking. Why are they quarreling?
Noah finished his drink in anger while River downed her drink in unison.
Alex and Kenny were dumbfounded once again. They really are a good pair.‘
Both of them were acting out of spite and made Kenny and Alex finish three bottles of red wine
River left for the washroom, and Noah seized the opportunity to look at Kenny in hostility.
What’s your relationship with River?”
